Last Day of Summer {August 30}

The last few weeks of summer were pretty packed. 

WORK:

Carly wrapped up her trashcan cleaning business – she ended up cleaning 59 containers over the summer.  Hopefully by next summer we’ll have a power washer to help things go quicker for her.  Abigail did quite a bit of babysitting, Carly had a few babysitting gigs as well (and has taken on a lot more since school has started and Abigail is so busy). 

SPORTS:

Soccer practices started at the beginning of August – between Carly, Jason, and Katie that means practices every day except Friday.  Abigail was/is spending hours everyday at the high school for volleyball (more on that to come).  In addition she is in the pep band this year so there were a few rehearsals before school started.

PLAY:

The kids were also spending any free time with friends.  Night games, trips down to the ridge for candy, yogurt and/or Starbucks (big girls only).  Jason and Katie were outside nearly every day playing with neighborhood kids and riding bikes.

We had one final excursion on our last day of summer!  {insert drum roll}

WINCO!  The kids were actually quite excited to run errands and they each got to pick out some candy from the bulk section at Winco.  


We also met up with Grandpa Fletcher at Café Rio for lunch.  Drew was already exhausted by the time we started eating and I ended up having to take him outside for a time out – I can’t remember what exactly he did but I think he threw some food on the floor or something.  He had to stand there until he said he was sorry – the kid is pretty stubborn so we were out there for a while.


I tell you even when he’s naughty I still find him absolutely adorable.

Thankfully everyone felt they had a great summer. No one was quite ready for school to start back up – most especially me :(
